Erika Tammpere

With I See, what I hear, a new piece commissioned specifically for this exhibition, Erika Tammpere has produced an intricate multi-sensorial textile piece, presenting us an uncompromising and unmistakably beautiful glimpse of life without sight. Interpreting various means of communication, such as voice and hearing, music and emotions, touch and embrace, Tammpere’s approach is decisively process-oriented, working with a multitude of themes and materials to staggering effect. At the heart of this tactile tapestry, which one is encouraged to touch and experience haptically, lies a distinctive artistic vision representing the invisible connections uniting different languages and their users.
